National Review: Give Nobel Peace Prize to Shi’ite imam
Guess whom the adolescents at National Review—I was going to call them eternal adolescents, but there’s nothing eternal about them, they’re just adolescent—have recommended for the Nobel Peace Prize. Ayatollah Sistani, the leading Shi’ite figure in Iraq. Why? Because he has cooperated with the U.S. occupation, and because he said that the cartoon riots project “a distorted and dark image of the faith of justice, love, and brotherhood.” Are the adolescents aware that this man of love and brotherhood will have difficulty receiving the Nobel Peace Prize, since that would require him to enter the same ballroom with, and presumably shake hands with, a large number of Swedes and other kafirs (infidels)? According to Sistani’s website, kafirs are najis, unclean—along with urine, feces, semen, dead bodies, blood, dogs, and pigs. All najis things are to be avoided. It was because Paul Bremer was an unclean kafir that Sistani refused to meet personally with him during the year that Bremer was exercising sovereign power in Iraq. Sistani regards all non-Muslim people, and all dogs, man’s best friend, as the spiritual equivalent of urine and feces. But NR’s editors want him to receive the Nobel Peace Prize because of his devotion to love and brotherhood.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: Any close involvement with Muslims deranges us, damages us, drags us and our standards down to their level. Muslims are undesirable either as friends or foes. Email entry |
